What to know before you order.
Which kitchen fronts suit fluting
Base and wall doors, drawer fronts, tall larders, appliance doors and exposed end panels all work. Many kitchens flute the island or one run and keep plain fronts elsewhere, so the texture reads as a deliberate feature rather than covering every surface.
Choosing a profile for a kitchen
Fine linear profiles such as Oxford and Windsor are calm and easy to live with across a whole kitchen. Broader rhythms like Georgian and Cornwall make a statement on an island or a bank of tall doors. Reeded profiles such as Soho feel softer and more tactile.
Oak or walnut in a kitchen
European oak keeps a kitchen light and pairs well with stone, white worktops and brass. American walnut is darker and warmer, ideal for a dramatic island or a kitchen that flows into a living space. Both are real timber veneer with natural variation.
Living with fluted doors
Choose lacquer on both sides for kitchens: it seals the timber and wipes clean. Finer flutes collect less than deep scallops, so keep the deepest profiles away from the hob and sink. A soft brush or damp cloth along the flutes keeps them clean.
Lining up flutes and framed fronts
For runs of doors and drawer stacks we sequence the veneer and line up the profile so the elevation reads as one surface. For a classic shaker look, choose the decorative frame — a mitred flat border around a fluted centre — in the configurator.
Measuring guide
How to measure
your kitchen doors.
Accurate sizes are the most important part of a made-to-measure kitchen. We check every list before production, but these steps avoid most mistakes.
Measure the doors, not the openings
Measure each existing door and drawer front: width × height in millimetres. Doors are smaller than the cabinet so there is a gap around them.
Keep the gaps you have
Most kitchens have a 2–3 mm gap between doors. We make each door exactly to the size you enter, so the gaps stay the same.
Group identical sizes
In the configurator, enter each size once and set the quantity. Name each size — for example “Sink base” or “Larder” — so the order is easy to check.
Note hinges and handles
Count the hinges on each door and note which side they are on, plus any handle positions. We confirm exact positions with you before drilling.
Measure drawer stacks one front at a time
Drawer fronts often differ in height within the same stack. Measure each one from top to bottom.
Do not forget panels
List end panels, island panels, fillers and plinths with their height and depth so the whole kitchen matches.

Questions,
answered.
Practical answers before you order. Every project is confirmed on a drawing before production.
01How much do fluted kitchen doors cost?
A single 500 × 715 mm oak base door, lacquered with finished edges, is about £134 + VAT (£150 with two hinge holes). A small kitchen of 12 fronts is about £1,400 + VAT, a medium kitchen of around 20 fronts about £3,600, and a large kitchen with an island about £6,600. Walnut is roughly 14–15% more.
02Can you make doors for my existing kitchen?
Yes. Measure your current doors and drawer fronts, note the hinges on each door, and enter the sizes in the configurator. We confirm hinge positions with you on a drawing before production.
03How long does a fluted kitchen take?
Usually 4–6 weeks from drawing approval and payment, then delivery across the UK or collection from Abbey Wood, London SE2.
04Are fluted kitchen doors hard to clean?
Not with lacquer and the right profile. Lacquered fronts wipe clean; finer flutes collect less than deep scallops. Avoid very deep profiles directly beside a hob.
05Are the doors moisture resistant?
The core is moisture-resistant MDF and lacquer seals both faces. Doors are not designed for standing water, so wipe spills promptly around sinks and dishwashers.
06Will tall larder doors stay flat?
They use a balanced construction with veneer on both faces. Lacquer on both sides and enough hinges for the height help keep tall doors flat — we suggest the hinge count on your drawing.
07Can I mix fluted and plain fronts?
Yes. Many clients flute only the island or the tall units. Plain veneered fronts in the same timber can be quoted to match.
08Do you fit the kitchen?
We make the doors, drawer fronts and panels. Your kitchen fitter or joiner fits them to your cabinets.
09Can I see samples before ordering?
Yes. Order oak and walnut samples in the profiles you like, or visit our London showroom by appointment.
10Is there a minimum order?
The minimum order is £250 + VAT. Prices exclude VAT and delivery; collection from Abbey Wood, London SE2 is free.
